anyone with intelligence knows that criminals will prey on people, weapons or no, and that a persons ONLY defense against a determined criminal with a gun is??????to have a gun.
now, you're premise that guns only allow a person to play god is wholly without a rational basis, considering that there are 80 million gun owners and 200 million guns. if your argument was even remotely correct, we'd be truly awash in blood. you're also broadly painting the typical gun owner as someone who merely wants the ability to have power and control over others. nothing could be further from the truth in reality.
If guns are a continual path of escalation, the arms race of people vs. criminals that i've heard you speak of, why on earth would you surrender to the criminals?
